Compare to Cuffs of Devastation, from Rage Winterchill (first Hyjal boss):-10sta-3int-3spi+3crit-5dmg+2dmg and -3sta from socket bonus.

And the bracers off Al'ar, Mindstorm Bands-1sta+4int+16spi-6crit-7dmgYellow socket and 2dmg bonus

Overall very good bracers for mages or locks. They might also be of interest to balance druids and elemental shammies - in addition to higher base +dmg, druids get spirit (for added regen combined with talents), and shammies get crit instead of mana regen (for some regen while offering more of a damage boost) compared to the new badge bracers.

They drop from Nalorakk, the "ursine" boss in Zul'Aman

Those are pretty nice for shadow priest if you are not in MH/BT yet. Same as Mindstorm Wristbands from Al'ar actually. Just trading some crit for 2 extra dmg (9 dmg gemmed) and spirit.

Pretty much the next in line bracer upgrade Shadow Priests should be looking for after Bracers of Havok for full spelldamage gear. A loss of 1 spell power is not that big of a deal with the stat gain. Depending on other gear it might be worth it to consider Shining Fire Opal for a loss of 2 spell power, while gaining the extra 5 +spell hit.

Well as fire mage I'd much rather have these and they're easier to obtain unless you get lucky.
